WE Volunteer
Meet new people, share experiences and learn from others. Help to enrich the lives of others in our community.
Volunteers are at the heart of our community
Volunteers bring compassion, joy, and a strong sense of community to seniors, families, youth, and individuals with special needs. Volunteers help improve access to essential services and break isolation for some of the most vulnerable members of our community, whether they’re spending time with residents in Saint Brigid’s Home or providing a vital ride to a medical appointment.
Our volunteers deliver care, connection, and hope where it’s needed most.
